Hi Peter,
I gave AmiQuote a shot but realized that it (Yahoo respectively)provided
only 2 years of data the maximum.
Since I am a swing trader who looks at the markets from mid- to long-term
perspective (i.e. swings tops and bottoms), I need to identify those mid-
and long-term support/resistance levels (or tops/bottoms for that matter)
properly.
Incidentally, to get in tune with the markets better, I prefer to have more
data available than Yahoo is ready to give. Otherwise, I somehow sense I
might overlook an important support/resistance area having manifested itself
before.
Maybe Iīm a little spoiled, but my data provider usually is quite good at
historical stuff.
They promised to add it in the next few weeks but I just needed it before
then.
Again, the above said might not be so important for traders digging into
smaller timeframes than I, especially for intra-day trading.

Markus,
Just curious as to why you do not use AmiQuote? Just click on the
plus sign and type in 'IYR' (Bill - IYR is an iShare Sector Fund).
